The Importance of Ultrasound Monitoring of the Normal and Lesional Cervical Ectropion Treatment.
Article in Current health sciences journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveto investigate the importance of various ultrasound prognosis features in the assessment of the cervical ectropion treatment monitoring.
methodThe inclusion criteria was the presence of ectropion and the selection was based on clinical examination performed during routine consultations in specialized clinics, later confirmed by colposcopic evaluation of cervix. The evaluation protocol included: clinical evaluation completed with colposcopy, guided biopsy when lesions were suspected, serological assay of day 21 progesteronemy, presence of Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, HVS type II, HPV and bacterial infections, transvaginal ultrasound serial evaluation at the 7th, 14th and 21st day before and after tretment concerning: cervical volumetric calculations and velocimetric measurements of uterine arteries flows. Progestative treatment was prescribed, and antiinfectious specific treatment when needed. Patients were reevaluated after 3 months.
resultsThe prospective study included 45 patients between 2013-2014. 28 presented serum progesterone levels below the reference range or borderline. We noted a moderate reduction of the ectropion area in 42 % and a marked reduction in 58% of the cases. No statistically significant differences were found between the size of the cervix before or after treatment, except certain evaluations (the 7th and the 14th day) in the presence of bacterial coinfections. Evaluation of pulsed Doppler velocimetric indices of uterine arteries flows showed generally minor variations with no constant positive or negative trend.
conclusionBased on the data obtained in our study, we conclude that ultrasound monitoring of ectropion treatment do not provide reliable prognosis data regarding the evolution of cervical lesion.
